powersteering cooler line removal

The ps cooling line has got to be moved. Can I just delete it or do I need to relocate? If I delete the cooling line will I have problems? I am gonig to try to fab up a v-mount using a spearco core and the ps lines are right where I want my radiator. i have my a/c removed so that is not a factor.

Maybe Ya'll could just covince me to loop the rack and pull the ps pump

I just read that chris from rotary extreme said the cooling lines are not needed. I just don't know if my rack will over heat and seize, which I would like to avoid. any other thoughts on the subject

i would run a high pressure hose to a relocated cooler (possible one with fins like a tranny cooler/oil cooler)

Keep the cooling line, it fits very well with the vmount with very little modification. Get a tubing bender and bend inlet and out let to facilitate the underside of the radiator. If you do it right it will sit very snugly against the fan shroud and actually fit right into one of the hose clips on the fan shroud. I can show you a pic if necessary, but if you look at it it is pretty self explainitory. Then just fabricate some brakets and go to the hardware store and get some of those vinal covers tubing clips and your in bid-ness

Another vote for the removal, I'm no a/c or p/s myself. It should be very easy to relocate the cooler to get airflow if you buy longer pressure hoses.
